282 Oddly Entertaining
A show to keep you on your toes, with unrepresentative tracks from bands, some well known, others not so, but all entertaining none the less. Assembled by our good friend Martin Lewis, to whom we owe great thanks.
Oddly Entertaining
This week’s theme is the odd track out—bits that are so far away from an artist’s regular output that they should, by all standards, have been by another aritst.

157R Going Dutch
Prog rock from the Netherlands in the early Seventies, a show curated for us by Martin Lewis. Deliberately without Focus, having had a show about them recently, but we did relent and had them in the preshow.
281 Laura Nyro
A look at the songs and performances of one of the most under-appreciated songwriters and singers of the late sixties, a poet, wearing her heart on her sleeve and performing her songs with unbridled conviction and honesty. 20 listeners joined us, a good number these days. The preshow was of Laura’s songs performed by and being hits for other people, and the postshow was Laura live.
Laura Nyro
This week, we’ll look at the work of the much-acclaimed writer of multi-dimensional and canine hits, as well as her own recordings. She was a bit under-appreciated during her lifetime. We’ll hear how her work holds up in these times.

156R Singing Together
A show dedicated to vocal harmoies in rock and pop, and full of rich fare. A tech problem meant that we were only audible through one ear, but the music was in full glorious stereo, so nothing important was lost.
Singing Together
This week, we will listen to what happens when bands decide to harmonize. That includes both historic and recent attempts at making the audience believe that the band’s members are not, in fact, going at one another with fists and knives when not posing for publicity pictures. And a few examples of bands already good at harmonizing being amazing at, er, harmonizing.

280 Edison’s Review of the Year
Our now-traditional summer show where Ed looks back ove the previous years new shows and picks his favourite tracks. A goodly crowd turned up to listen and the general opinion was – it’s a hit.
155R Richard Thompson
A show highlighting just some of the talents of Richard Thompson, guitarist singer and songwriter of unnervingly great skill and seemingly no specific desire for fame. We covered a bit of his days with Fairport Convention, some of his work with Linda Peters/Thompson, some acoustic and some electric solo guitar work. Up to 19 connections, not bad for the weekend of Mysterium.
As promised, here’s the link to the schedule for the 2025 MOULa Summerfest as a pdf. Note that each event has a link, as either video stream or music stream, which will take you to the relevant stream on the day.
280 Live, All Over the Place
A set of live tracks, slightly heavy on the jazz side but with a nice feel and some excellent live performances. Our thanks to Hugh and Nigel for this one.
